Abstract
Nowadays, individuals do yoga as a way to improve their physical and psychological health with the pursuit of feeling good. Therefore, examining yoga in terms of psychological factors is very important in literature and life. This study aimed to examine psychological well-being, happiness, and mindfulness according to yoga and non-yoga practitioners and the sequential mediating role of happiness and mindfulness in the relationship between yoga and psychological well-being. The sample group of this study consists of 263 participants (129 yoga practitioners and 134 non-yoga practitioners). Participants completed the Demographic Information Form, Psychological Well-Being Scale, Oxford Happiness Scale, and Conscious Awareness Scale online. The data obtained in the study were analyzed by applying the Pearson correlation coefficient and Serial Multi-Mediator Variable Analysis (PROCESS Model 6). According to the study results, it was seen that between psychological well-being and happiness .56, between psychological well-being and mindfulness .34, and between happiness and mindfulness .30 correlations are positive and significant relationships. In conclusion, the results remark on the significant sequential mediating role of happiness and mindfulness in the relationship between yoga and psychological well-being.
